Every one of us has unique skills and talents. We learn from one another. We help one another grow. People with developmental disabilities are no exception. They are students, athletes, neighbours, employees and volunteers. They have much to offer. But, too often, people with developmental disabilities are kept from fully participating in community life or realizing true citizenship. That’s why CLOC is here. We help those with developmental disabilities, and their families, advocate for inclusive communities. Through community partnerships, skills training and resources, the people who use CLOC services are able to find their place as an active contributor in their own lives, and to society as a whole.
